How forex trading works
Forex trading involves speculating on the price movement between two currencies, traded as pairs. When you believe one currency will strengthen against another, you go long. If you expect it to weaken, you go short.
With CFD trading you never own the currencies themselves, you trade their price movement with leverage. Profit and loss settle in your USD account at close.

Short answers to what traders ask most. Anything else, our team is a message away.
When can I trade forex?
The forex market is open 24 hours a day, five days a week, from Sunday evening to Friday evening, covering every major session in Asia, Europe and North America.
What moves currency prices?
Interest rate decisions, inflation data, employment reports, central bank policy and global sentiment all move currency pairs, sometimes sharply during news releases.
Do I own the currency I buy?
No. Forex CFDs are derivatives. You speculate on the price difference between the two currencies without taking delivery.
What leverage is available?
Up to 1:200 on FX and metals, applied per asset class. Higher leverage amplifies both gains and losses.
Is there a commission on FX?
On Artix Core there is none. Edge and Elite charge $5 and $3.5 per lot per side respectively, paired with zero spreads.
Can I trade during news releases?
Yes. Prices remain tradable, though spreads may widen for a short window around high-impact data.
